Manchester United vs Chelsea
Premier League 2018-19
Venue: Old Trafford
Kick-off: 4.30pm BST, today
Man Utd and Chelsea lock horns at Old Trafford today in a match that could go a long way to deciding who finishes in the Premier League's top four.
Should Arsenal lose again on the road at Leicester City, United will have the chance to leapfrog the Gunners in fifth – and move level on points with Chelsea, with Maurizio Sarri’s side boasting a more favourable goal difference.
After winning 14 of the first 17 matches under Ole Gunnar Solskjaer across all competitions, United’s form has nose-dived at a remarkable rate: Losing seven of their last nine games.
Will Chelsea heap more misery on Old Trafford after Wednesday’s Manchester derby defeat? Or will Man Utd return to winning ways?
